Now accepting submissions: The First Flight New Play Festival

Boomerang is accepting submissions for the 12th Annual FIRST FLIGHT New Play Festival, running November 19th-23rd, 2014 at ART/NY (520 8th Avenue, NYC)

FIRST FLIGHT is one of the premiere new play development festivals in Indie Theatre. Each play selected to participate in the festival received 6 hours of rehearsal time over the course of one week, culminating in a public reading of the play for a supportive audience.

As of 2014, Boomerang only accepts electronic submissions.
The open submission period for FIRST FLIGHT 2014 is August 1st-August 31st. Submissions will not be accepted after August 31st at 11:59pm.

Please submit your resume, a synopsis of your play, and a 10 page sample of the play. Note: this does not have to be the first 10 pages; merely the 10 pages that best represent the play and your writing.

Seeking new full length plays, comedies or dramas, adaptations or wholly original, that speak to the current cultural and historical moment in time. Especially interested in theatrical use of language and style. Plays are not limited to cast size, period or setting. Please note: We do not accept musicals, nor do we accept one act plays less than 60 minutes.
